1. Introduction
The MPPT Control display is a dedicated display for the Victron Energy SmartSolar and BlueSolar MPPT solar charger range. It can be used to read out the live and historic solar charger data and it can be used to configure solar charger settings.
Examples of live and historic monitoring:
PV power, yield, voltage and current.
Battery voltage, current and charge stage.
Load output state and current (only available if the solar charger is equipped with a load output).
30-day historical values
Cumulative historic values over the live of the solar charger
Tip
The MPPT Control display can be used with the whole range of BlueSolar and SmartSolar MPPT solar chargers. However, for solar chargers rated 60A consider using the better suited SmartSolar Control display instead.
Power cable
The display ships together with a fused power cable.
The supplied power cable is only needed when the display is used with some very early solar charger models that have been since long discontinued. These early models shut down when they do not receive solar power. The power cable provides power to the display straight from the battery so that the display is also operational during bad weather of after the sun has gone down.
VE.Direct cable
A VE.Direct cable is needed to connect the display to the solar charger. This cable is not included with the MPPT Control display and needs to be purchased separately.
VE.Direct cables vary in lengths from 0.3 up to 10 meter and are available with straight or right angle connectors. For more information see the VE.Direct cable product page.
Wall mounting enclosure
The housing of the MPPT Control display is tailored towards being flush mounted through a panel. In case flush mounting is not possible a dedicated wall mount enclosure can be used. This enclosure allows for easy wall mounting of the display.
There are two wall mounting options:
